To many memories that I can't count! We were usually ready to get into trouble but trouble would find us. It was always innocent in those days. She was a good friend and we cared about each other. I remember riding with the top down and singing our hearts out!! Im so thankful I got to talk to her recently....rest in peace Lizzy.
